AMG's Mark S. Berry Announces Live James Brown Film With Family On Board

Deal Involves Live Concert Documentary, Unreleased Masters, Hologram Live Concert & Additional Feature Film Of Holographic Concert.

Even though AMG Visuals' Chairman Mark S. Berry can be an uncompromising guy, when he had a chance to get involved with making a movie about James Brown two years ago, he chose to wait until the family was ready as he knew their involvement would be an invaluable asset to the success of the project. That patience has paid off big time. AMG Visuals has reached an agreement with Loochie Records And Publishing LLC/James Brown Family and is now moving forward with what it hopes will be the ultimate live-concert documentary film on the man whose vocal wizardry and dance sensibilities made him one of the most iconic stars in soul/pop history.

AMG has established a theatrical street date of October 2015 that will be produced by Berry and its international team of producers Kevin Stallings & Ryan Hamsho. Mark S. Berry and AMG's EVP Rob "Kelo" Hendricks will executive produce for AMG. Best of all, Brown's best known tunes, from Sex Machine, Get Up Off That Thing to Living In America, will be used as part of the films live soundtrack that was Mr. Brown's last live recorded performance in Anaheim, California, just prior to his death in 2006. AMG had negotiated directly with Stallings whom directed the live portion of the concert. Potential interviewees include family members of James Brown, the JB's Fred Wesley & Maceo Parker, Danny Ray (Brown's long timer friend and MC), singer Chris Brown, Bootsy Collins and many more.

Also in the deal are multiple unreleased James Brown audio masters (not from the film) that will become a duet CD (along the lines of Nat King Cole/Natalie Cole's "Unforgettable") with some of today's biggest pop/urban stars for a release in 2016. There will be a further future live concert development of the project in preserving and promoting the great talent and contribution of James Brown to the Music and Performing Arts.

Guy Morel in Australia is on board as a Co-Executive Producer with regards to the DUETS LIVE CONCERT and the Holographic imaging of James Brown. A performance including holographic, state of the art technology and fellow artists at a major performance venue in the USA for 2016 will be announced soon. Co Executive Producer Morel adds, "We want to get this right so it's an event worthy of Mr. Brown's great talent and contribution to the arts. Some of the music industries major artists, promoters and legals want this to be the first of many projects in the preservation and promotion of this great performers iconic talents".

This show would be an entire evening of Holographic Duets with the artists that perform on the Duet CD with inter-cut James Brown interview/family footage along with archival as well. This will be a huge international event and bring an entire new generation of listeners to James Brown music. Berry and Morel and their team see this as their way of giving back to an industry that's forever evolving but knowing that the foundation should be maintained and preserved. Morel is currently scouting partners for the Holographic imaging.

Daryl Brown, Mr. Brown's son says, "I have never been so excited about a project, Kevin Stallings has really captured the great essence of my father from the footage already shot. Mark Berry and AMG are the right team to see it come to fruition for a theatrical, broadcast & DVD release of the film properties and the duet CD. It is right there with the feelings I got when I first stepped on stage with my father".

Director Kevin Stallings adds," I would like to thank my creator, the James Brown family & associates for trusting me and being a part of a memorable production based on the legacy James Brown established throughout his ground-breaking career as one of the greatest entertainers of all time. Mark Berry's vision of introducing the James Brown of yester-year through the superstar Duet CD will see this legacy continue to a whole new audience".

"Being involved with such a high profile project from the films to the audio Duet CD is needless to say humbling; I could not be more excited to be teaming up with Loochie, Daryl Brown and the family of James Brown. Their passion and vision for the films and unreleased masters felt like the perfect strategy to bring it to international audiences," says AMG's Chairman Mark S. Berry. "It's been an amazing ride so far with such a great and supportive team on board, we are thrilled to be moving forward."

This will be a big scale picture for AMG's Berry, who recently worked alongside Hendricks as Co-Executive Producers on the live DRAKE HOMECOMING - The Lost Footage, which teamed Drake, Rap-A-Lot's James & Jas Prince for an exhilarating live film released through Specticast & AMC/Cineplex to 1200 theaters worldwide in March of 2015.

Drake's Homecoming The Lost Footage Coming to select Cineplex Theaters

Rediscovered 2009 Concert Footage from Toronto's Sound Academy with Exclusive Interviews Coming to Select Canadian Cineplex Odeon/Landmark Movie Theaters.

Drake's Lost Concert Comes to Select Cinemas for One Night on March 18, Presented by Cineplex Odeon, SpectiCast, Serious Ent., AMG, Rap-A-Lot Records & Young Empire Music Group.

Grammy®-Award winning, platinum-selling recording artist and multi-faceted entertainer Drake comes to the big screen for a special one-night concert event, "DRAKE'S HOMECOMING: THE LOST FOOTAGE," on Thursday, March 19, 2015 at 7:30 p.m. local time, presented by Cineplex Odeon, SpectiCast, Serious Ent., AMG, Rap-A-Lot Records & Young Empire Music Group.

Previously believed lost and destroyed, the footage for "DRAKE'S HOMECOMING: THE LOST FOOTAGE" was shot prior to Drake signing with Little Wayne's Young Money (Cash Money/Universal) imprint during a live, sold-out concert at Toronto's Sound Academy in 2009. After its recent rediscovery, additional production and footage was added to the concert film including interviews with Rap-a-Lot Records CEO James Prince and his son Jas Prince, who is credited with the discovery of Drake and bringing him to the attention of Little Wayne. The soundtrack includes the international smash hits, "Best I Ever Had" and "Successful."

Jas Prince, CEO of Young Empire Music Group said, "When I first listened to Drake I had no idea he was on a hit show, I just fell in love with his sound and talent - it was unique and like nothing I had ever heard before. I told him during our first conversation I would make him a star. This film documents the beginning of that journey."

Tickets for "DRAKE'S HOMECOMING: THE LOST FOOTAGE," are available at participating theater box offices and online at drakeshomecoming.com.

First known for his role on the highly-successful television series "Degrassi: The Next Generation," the Toronto-based rapper Drake now holds the record for the most number one hits on Billboard's R&B/Hip-Hop Chart. Prior to his current fame, Drake self-released several mixtapes before releasing the single "Best I Ever Had" from the 2009 mixtape "So Far Gone," which charted to #2 on the Billboard's "Hot 100" chart. After signing to Universal, Drake released the album "Thank Me Later" (2010) which reached sales of 1.5 million and produced the top ten hit "Over." 2011 saw the release of the multi-platinum album "Take Care" and Drake winning a Grammy for the "Best Rap Album." His 2012 "Club Paradise Tour" was the highest grossing hip-hop tour, bringing in excess of $42 million. 2013's release of "Nothing Was The Same" earned Drake the top spot in the Billboard 200, a platinum certification, and another Grammy nomination. 2013/2014's "Would You Like a Tour" grossed over $48 million. 2015 will see the release of his fourth studio album, "Views From The 6," released worldwide.

"SpectiCast is proud to be the worldwide distributor of this film. Drake is an international superstar and we are excited to showcase him at the start of his mammoth career. This rare footage is a must-see for every Drake fan across the globe" said SpectiCast Co-founder and President Mark Rupp.

"James Prince, CEO of Rap-a-Lot and Anzel Jennings, Co-Producer of DRAKE:HOMECOMING have been outstanding partners in wanting the quality of the project maintained throughout all levels. We couldn't ask for a better team of international partners for the theatrical and broadcast deals being concluded right now. In conjunction with Rap-a-Lot we are looking at an early 2015 for the international release of all windows across multiple platforms"." states AMG Chairman Mark S. Berry.

Rob "Kelo" Hendricks, EVP Business Affairs at AMG added "It goes without saying that this film is essential for Drake fans, particularly given the amount of time spent on highlights of how he was discovered and the climb up. Mark and I are honored at being a part of this film and in partnership with James and Anzel at Rap-a-Lot along with Mark Rupp at Specticast as Drake is more than just an artist with 21.5M Twitter followers. He's a planet and his planet is populated by millions of devoted fans. We are set to deliver a 5 star project" he said.

Samuel Cole-Elkind, president of Serious Entertainment says, "We are honored and humbled to present one of the biggest concert films for hip -hop culture ever. To be presenting this movement along with legendary AMG producer Mark Berry, Rob "Kelo" Hendricks, Rap A Lot records CEO James Prince & Specticast President Mark Rupp is truly an honor. This film has been compared to the Beatles performing at the tavern in London. The world will now get the Drake experience on the big screen with surround sound worldwide".

Mark Berry's AMG Enters Lifestyle Programming Arena With AMG LifestyleSizzlin' Cooking Show Poised For Major Broadcast Deals Internationally AMG Lifestyle's First Rollout.

TORONTO - It's in 2015 that AMG decided to create a new division to enter Canadian television - lifestyle.

The production company is already present in the country for eighteen years providing music and related services to the international film industry landing high profile placements in films from The Matrix Reloaded to TV's America's Most Wanted. Recently, Berry along with AMG EVP Rob "Kelo" Hendricks developed and executive produced the live concert feature film, Drake's Homecoming The Lost Footage, in an international partnership with Specticast, Fathom/AMC, Cineplex Odeon & Rap-a-Lot Records. North American theatrical is set with AMC & Cineplex Odeon for March 19, 2015

For years focusing on music, AMG found an opportunity to carve a new space and saw potential in the consumption of lifestyle programming among the Canada's various ethnicities. Today lifestyle content on television is pervasive. AMG has been responsible for opening up genres with their new international cookery show, Sizzlin'. It was the right time for AMG to start its lifestyle portfolio with the acquisition and launch of B-Squared Entertainment, co-executive production team of Sizzlin' headed up by Frank Blenman.

AMG Lifestyle's long-term goal is to create new segments of lifestyle ranging from wine, cheese, travel, cuisine to high life. Sizzlin' was an overnight success as it was loved for its refreshing and differentiated content by international broadcasters, affiliates and advertisers.

Frank Blenman, B-Squared's co-president, was made to look after the lifestyle initiative. The vision of launching AMG Lifestyle was to increase people's horizons. "We did a whole lot of background work to find out about the various cultures and society, what people want, what their aspirations are, what they read. It was a time when people were open to new things. We offer them that. We show them new places to travel, explore different kinds of cuisine and even different hotels to stay in. We wanted to help discover different kinds of holidays, driving experiences, vineyards, wine etc." said Blenman.

Blenman noted the challenge of being a first mover. "We had to build brand familiarization by effectively communicating the proposition and developing a community for first-time viewers of a new category of television entertainment. People were getting more interested in leisure time activities. They also started becoming more interested in brands whether it was clothing or cars. The concept of eating in restaurants and experimenting with food was catching on. A big change was going on in urban North America in terms of how people spent their money and lived. We want AMG Lifestyle to became the default production entity for new lifestyle entertainment in North America."

We had three challenges reacted to the stakeholders in this business. One challenge was convincing distributors that Sizzlin' was worth showing. You had to persuade advertisers that this is something worth being invested in.

After all, advertisers plan budgets for different types in advance. Viewers also had to be convinced as they have viewing habits. They have eight to ten shows that they choose from. We had to break into that."

Growing exposure to lifestyle also helped AMG grow. "I remember getting emails from people saying that they had planned a Caribbean holiday after watching the Sizzlin' screener. Watchers wrote that they visited a restaurant after it was featured on our AMG screener for Sizzlin'. They were planning trips around television content. This was a testament to the fact that we got both our launch timing right and programming right," said Berry. We generated interest from the advertising and marketing communities very early on." For Blenman the key to success lay in being ahead of the curve in identifying emerging trends and developing programming for a supreme viewing experience. There was increasing awareness and desire to know more about the world around, different life style, cuisine, trends, etc.

The plan going forward is to continue to bring in more types of lifestyle entertainment and to broaden AMG's Lifestyle appeal, present more acclaimed personalities, amplify Canadian content and invest in marketing and distribution of a Lifestyle channel.

"AMG is positioned to be the premium lifestyle producer and will continue to enhance its offering with a wide variety of lifestyle content. The Canadian television landscape is ever changing and we have stayed ahead of the curve by recognizing the evolving trends and addressing them by creating new television genres and distinct audience segments. We are committed to further invest in content, distribution and promotion to deliver the finest viewing experience and offer the maximum value to the advertisers," concludes Berry.


Berry along with AMG EVP Rob "Kelo" Hendricks developed and executive produced the live concert feature film, Drake's Homecoming The Lost Footage, in an international partnership with Specticast, Fathom/AMC, Cineplex Odeon and Rap-a-Lot Records. Theatrical is set with AMC & Cineplex Odeon for March 19, 2015.

Walsh, a top-tier engineer & producer at Crazy Lady Records, has fast become a taste-making producer through his Crazy Lady Productions shingle. The most recent success is the international IFORANI, the alt rock band, as well as the new Kyley Styles forthcoming release presently in post production mix mode.

Walsh in his production capacity on Kyley Styles brought the project to the attention of Berry and will be released under his deal with Universal Music out of LA in the first quarter, 2015. Walsh's existing projects will be under his Crazy Lady banner.

"For the past 10 years I have worked with Josh, I have admired his great taste, passion and tenacity, and we have long talked about being in business together," said AMG Chairman Mark S. Berry.

Said Rob "Kelo" Hendricks, EVP AMG, "It is wonderful to start the new year with this partnership, making it official, and we are excited to begin our collaboration."

AMG's Canadian Country Star Kevin Chase Scores European Licensing Deal with Germany's

AGR/Universal

Signs With Mark Berry's AMG Global for 360 Management Deal.

AGR/Universal has announced Kevin Chase as the newest member of its legendary European country music roster. Acclaimed for his highly energetic shows, the New Brunswisk native hopes the second time around with AGR will be the charm. "We're excited to join the roster of AMG & AGR Records through Universal" says Kevin Chase. "The label's history is filled with culture-defining artists that have inspired me throughout the years. There's a great creative spirit there that we all immediately recognized and I wanted to be a part of."

"Kevin Chase commands the live stage with fervor," says AGR President Andreas Graban. "His songs encapsulate the fever and frailty of human emotion in a way that appeals to me as a music advocate. For that reason, I'm extremely proud to have Kevin as the newest member of the AGR family."

Kevin Chase is currently applying final strokes to his eagerly awaited album "Groove On", collaborating with co-producers Marc Gosselin and Jim Kuehnel. Top producer Anthony Little also took part with his work on lead single "Whole Lotta Honey" and "Rock Me Country".

The collection is slated for release in January, 2015 and sure to secure Chase's place as one of the most exciting new artists of the year hailing the artist's creative intertwining of compelling music and strong visuals. The country rocker's 4th studio album, Groove On drops January 13th in a standard 13-track version as well as an 18-track deluxe version.

Kevin Chase, you could say, is a guy who, at this point in his career, is able to stretch out a bit creatively, explore new sonic territories and listen less to the suits and more to his soul. And for him, that freedom to explore is represented across his latest album "Groove On".

Even the title itself significant. "To me, [it's] all about that time where you stop doing what you have to do," he said in a recent press statement, "and start doing what you want to do."

"This album is very encompassing of everything that I've done in my career," Chase said in a press release "You can certainly hear parts of my career throughout all of these songs, as well as the future and where my music is headed. "If I look at it in a visual sense, it represents a great landscape," Chase told Radio.com. "There are so many different colors, and so many different textures to this record."

Chase's current single is "Whole Lotta Honey," a midtempo song with a cool, confident melody that feels tailor-made for a road-trip mixtape. "This is one of those songs that really paints a picture and sets a mood," AMG Chariman Mark Berry said about "Whole Lotta Honey". "In my mind, you look over and see the person that you love next to you sitting in the front seat, and you think, 'How good do I have it? Life is perfect.' There is a certain warmth to Kevin's songs and several others like it" on the album.

Chase, at the same time, though, set into the project with the sure-footed attitude of someone who knows not only the business, but himself. "I feel like I've got enough wherewithal about me and been doing this long enough now," he explained, "that there's a certain confidence in what I'm doing that makes everything feel more visceral."

AMG Executive Team of Mark Berry & Rob "Kelo" Hendricks on Board as Executive Producers of New

DRAKE : HOMECOMINGLive Concert Feature Film

AMG in Association with James Prince at Rap-A-Lot Records & Toronto's Serious Entertainment Are Scheduling An Early 2015 Release Across All Platforms.

EXCLUSIVE: Canadian based film & music supervision company AMG and its executive team of multi-platinum awarded record producer Mark Berry and Rob "Kelo" Hendricks snags its first homegrown production for their fledgling film division with a premium acquisition.

Its latest production in an international partnership with Rap-a-Lot Records in Houston, Texas gives them Executive Producer status and worldwide acquisition rights across all platforms to the feature length concert film, DRAKE:HOMECOMING. AMG's longstanding relationship with international licensing agents and contacts will pool expertise and resources on a global basis.

DRAKE:HOMECOMING, the live sold out concert filmed at Toronto's Sound Academy in 2009 prior to Drake signing with Little Wayne's Young Money imprint through Cash Money/Universal, was believed lost and destroyed. After its recent re-discovery, the project was brought to the attention of famed record producer Mark Berry who had professional analysis of the data completed. Mark then enlisted the services of longtime friend and AMG business affairs attorney Paul D. Schindler (Katy Perry, Madonna, Jennifer Lopez) at Greenberg Traurig in NYC to cultivate deals.

Additional production and footage brought to the table by AMG included the organizing of interviews with James Prince and his son Jas Prince, the latter credited with the actual discovery of Drake and bringing him to the attention of Little Wayne who went on to sign the global superstar to his Young Money imprint. The soundtrack includes the international smashes, "Best I Ever Had" & "Successful".

The first order of business was securing an international release for the outstanding audio soundtrack and DVD rights through Rap-a-Lot Records based out of Houston, Texas in its deal with SONY/RED. "James Prince, CEO of Rap-a-Lot and Anzel Jennings, Co-Producer of DRAKE:HOMECOMING have been outstanding partners in wanting the quality of the project maintained throughout all levels" states AMG Chairman Berry.

Rob "Kelo" Hendricks, EVP Business Affairs at AMG added "It goes without saying that this film is essential for Drake fans, particularly given the amount of time spent on highlights of how he was discovered and the climb up. Mark and I are honored at being a part of this film and in partnership with James and Anzel at Rap-a-Lot as Drake is more than just an artist with 17M Twitter followers. He's a planet and his planet is populated by millions of devoted fans. We are set to deliver a 5 star project" he said.

Upcoming DRAKE:HOMECOMING announcements include a worldwide theatrical release with premium theatre chains globally along with several major international broadcast deals. Berry adds, "We couldn't ask for a better team of international partners for the theatrical and broadcast deals being concluded right now. In conjunction with Rap-a-Lot we are looking at an early 2015 for the international release of all windows across multiple platforms".

TORONTO, CANADA - International recording artist Grazzia Giu has released her debut single "Pretend" to North America radio on July 13th, 2014 in advance of her CD entitled "Pretend". "Pretend" single & video will be distributed through AMG and its major label distribution partner, Bungalo/Universal Music Group Distribution.

"I'm very excited to be part of a team that believes in me and my music, and can help take me to the next level as a songwriter & performer," states Giu. "I couldn't ask for a better group of people to make that journey with. I'm glad to be part of team AMG/Deevel!"

"What I love about jazz is that you can break all the rules and be free," states Grazzia, when describing her love of the musical genre she first discovered at a very young age after hearing the recordings of Thelonious Monk, John Coltrane and Miles Davis. This freedom of jazz is taken to new heights on "Pretend" showcasing her versatile techniques and talents.

Mark S. Berry, who's extensive jazz credits come from engineering jazz greats such as Oregon, Elvin Jones, Bunky Green, James Moody, Ralph Towner and many more at the legendary Vanguard Records in New York City for 12 years states, "To be working with a talent such as Grazzia is an honor. Pretend is a debut to remember and jazz aficionados everywhere will be talking about this release for some time to come. This is the kind of recording that hits the jazz purist's sweet spot and Grazzia and her band are bound to reap the benefits."

Rob "Kelo" Hendricks furthers, "We are delighted that Grazzia has chosen Deevel as her marketing infrastructure. We have already done deals with major business radio outlets, Spotify, MTV and the future looks great for international licensing."

Proclaimed "the future of jazz", Grazzia has recorded two solo jazz albums before releasing "Pretend". Her musical journey has been especially remarkable and Grazzia's music has been prominently featured on radio stations worldwide.

"Pretend"will be available digitally through iTunes, Tune Core, Amazon.com and via Grazzia's direct deal with Spotify.

Former K-9 Posse Member Coordinates Tour & Video.

Toronto, Canada - AMG is proud to announce the international release of Sharrief's debut single "I'm Original" through AMG/Bungalo/Universal. Mark S.

Berry comments, "Sharrief's musical intuition, stellar talent and dedication are all foundation to this sensational accomplishment. We are very proud of his achievements and the reaction by the international music community on his debut single, "I'm Original". Because of the demand we are preparing a tour and video and are priming to entertain his new found fan base around the globe.

Sharrief broke onto the US music scene in the late 1990's with his quirky brand of alternative songwriting with Eddie Murphy's brother called, K-9 Posse. This debut album showcased the diversity of Sharrief's sultry singing style with seductive ballads and upbeat grooves. Recorded as an independent release for AMG, "I'm Original" is quickly becoming one of North America's hottest selling singles topping the independent charts only two weeks after its release.

Sharrief's independent brand of production is constantly in demand with production assignments coming from the UK and South Korea. His UK project entitled Elloquence, a three girl singing group, is slated for release later this year. In South Korea with noted Co-Producer Young Jin Chun, Sharrief will brand three separate groups in the K-Pop genre.

Sharrief comments that, "working with Mark Berry as well as the team at AMG has been a pleasure; everyone's hard work and their professionalism has given me a great start at radio internationally. I can't wait to get out there soon to start touring."

Mark S. Berry Sets Joint Venture With Frank Blenman To Launch B-Squared Studios

Headquartered in Toronto, B-Squared Studios will develop and produce drama, reality & comedy projects.

EXCLUSIVE: Mark S. Berry has finalized a joint venture agreement with producer Frank Blenman to launch B-Squared Studios, Toronto, a film studio under the umbrella of AMG Global Entertainment. Berry had been in talks with Blenman for a few months in the development of scripted, reality series and documentaries. The two already have a project together: AMG's online series scripted drama Heroes of Hip Hop.

Berry segues to the B-Squared Studios deal while maintaining the chairmanship of AMG Global Entertainment, and will serve as co-president of B-Squared Studios.

Headquartered in Toronto, B-Squared Studios will develop and produce drama, reality & comedy projects, distributed by AMG Global Entertainment's international portals. B-Squared Studios also has projects in the pipeline that will be done as international co-productions. "While B-Squared Studios will produce pilots, the objective is to develop and package scripts with talent in a straight-to-series model as we've done with Heroes of Hip Hop," said Berry. "I feel fortunate to have partnered with Mark at AMG Global; they are amazingly supportive and innovative and they will be fully backing B-Squared Studios."

Added Rob "Kelo" Hendricks, EVP, Business Affairs at AMG Global Entertainment, "I'm thrilled that we'll be partnering with Frank and his great team, including Bob Shami, to create innovative and exciting drama, reality & comedy series."

Berry, founder of AMG Global, and Hendricks, previously EVP at Toronto based urban incubator, Seven Figure Music, executive produce the latest Drake live concert film in partnership with Serious Entertainment. Berry also executive produces along with New York based Shami Media, Dennis Rodman's, Doing It My Way, the upcoming 90 minute documentary. Previous credits have included high profile music insertions for The Making of the Matrix Reloaded, Coach Carter, Harvard Man, Urban Legend and many more.

B-Squared's U.S. outpost had signed pacts with unscripted producers in the past, and the mothership studio has acquired a slew of independent productions in the reality space for development.

AMG's Global Entertainment Joint Venture With B-Squared To Focus On Urban Television Properties

And 15% Growth Plan In 2014

New venture targets the online youth market of 15-25.

2013-14 was a significant turnaround year for AMG, the Toronto based media and entertainment company. The operations shifted from music to include reality based television shows, dramas and their film content was strengthened as it strategized the integration of high profile documentaries and live superstar music concert performances into its extensive music media catalog.

AMG Chairman Mark S. Berry and EVP Rob "Kelo" Hendricks promises to make the remaining 2014/15 an even bigger year with a focus on urban themed film and television properties through its newly inked joint venture with New York's B-Squared Entertainment.

B-Squared's CEO Frank Blenman states, "We are looking to capture our audience with new, innovative, daring and captivating content with a undercurrent of global appeal. I'm excited about the programming we currently have on the table as well as the discussions we're holding with other prospects. Mark and the team at AMG are top notch niche oriented professionals that are bringing international broadcast distribution to the table as well as development expertise."

Building on high profile name properties, in September, the red hot Dennis Rodman documentary, 'Doing It My Way' will arrive produced in association with Shami Media in New York, followed by the reality based 'As The Pole Turns'. "Our aim is to make high profile urban properties bigger by creating notoriety through social media and other international media licensing platforms inclusive of telecoms worldwide." says Berry.

"The third show we are very excited about is the street drama 'Heroes of Hip Hop'. What we have noticed is that street kids were watching the show online gaining an audience. Our aim is to have every urban music lover in the country watch the show. As a result, urban themed music companies and sponsors have started advertising and getting in on the action with the growing number of eyeballs online."

Another area of focus will be building interaction and doing social media activation for all B-Squared properties. More focus on digital marketing: Berry says that the company has done a different mix of marketing when one looks at online. "A lot of online programming that we do is about increasing segment viewership," he explains. Berry says that this is more of a social media initiative. "When we look at social media, we look at doing things that will activate it. Social media is about conversation. We wanted to create a platform for viewers to converse about our shows. People chatter and compare shows using social media. So we felt the need to launch urban street based shows that will give people the chance to talk about the shows.

We are not just pushing urban based shows, but ones that have a global appeal. "Our audience looks to be linked around the world through comedy, action, adventure and drama. We are gender neutral-skewed production entity," states B-Squared's Frank Blenman. AMG's brand positioning is clear. "AMG is skewing increasingly towards the youth. We are catching people young, which is good. While our core audience is between 15-25 years and growing rapidly for us. We are getting in content that they want to watch such as 'Heroes of Hip Hop'," avers Berry. For AMG, reality works the best in terms of online viewership return. Around 55 per cent of B-Squared's viewership comes from reality themed programming.

"We have a team of 10 people looking after different areas like programming, marketing, production etc. We are definitely more flexible. We are on the ground listening to the online community. This is really helping us. We are faster and are quicker to respond to the market, states Blenman.

AMG's Mark S. Berry Announces Creation Of Formidable Ad Marketing Division

"Brand Relations" Syncing Music to Commercial Products & Brands

New Division To Service 500 Ad Agencies Internationally With Music.

Two highly respected music executives Mark S. Berry, Music Producer & Rob "Kelo" Hendricks, EVP Business Affairs at AMG are merging a new division, linking music to commercial products & brands into the AMG fold.

AMG and its music marketing division AttackTrax have joined together under a new moniker that merges their names with AMG's Berry as CEO and Hendricks serving as EVP. It will be known as "Brand Relations" matching music with commercial products and brands.

The duo will continue with audio/visual, digital and branding campaigns for film, broadcast, home entertainment and other mediums with offices in New York and Hong Kong. In other words, a one-stop shop. The move combines AMG's AttackTrax motion picture & television music expertise with Brand Relation's digital and web ad talent.

"This merger combines our individual strengths," said Berry. "We both have the same passion and we know that together we are greater than the sum of our parts. I think you have to be able to do a 360 degree integrated marketing system because a lot of clients are looking for that. We've done that now with Brand Relations linking our music catalog at AttackTrax with commercial products and brands."

Both are respected figures in the music and film marketing communities. Mark S. Berry is Chairman at AMG, a major music licensing agency. Berry and Hendricks have won numerous awards for their production work and now their campaigns are out helping to launch major brands in conjunction with major ad agencies.

They also worked on films like The Matrix Reloaded, Coach Carter, Urban Legend, Harvard Man along with major television programs. Berry throughout the years has received multiple Gold & Platinum Record awards for his impressive body of work.

"Fundamentally, in the world today, there is nothing just about print or av anymore, and we're aware of it," said Hendricks. "What should be happening all the way through from a/v all the way through to the web for continuity's sake is a concept that comes from one mind. Otherwise, there are disconnects all over the place. We're connecting (a campaign) all the way through in a conceptual way from start to finish with the linking of music to brands from our extensive catalog."

Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

Mark S. Berry & Bob Shami Executive Produce Dennis Rodman:Doing It My Way Documentary As

Part Of Growth Strategy

AMG & Shami Media Group in Association with Rodman Management, Prince Marketing, Works to Complete Documentary for MIPCOM Licensing.

Toronto, Canada - Toronto based AMG has established itself as a buyer, slowly but steadily growing their new media division with choice acquisitions and partnerships. Its latest move is the partnership with Shami Media Group in New York with worldwide acquisition rights and executive producer status to Dennis Rodman's feature length documentary, DENNIS RODMAN, DOING IT MY WAY. AMG's longstanding relationship with international licensing agents and contacts will pool expertise and resources on a global basis.

AMG has been methodically making moves to build itself either by picking up top indie films or through measured media investments such as B-Squared Entertainment with Frank Blenman whose first acquisition for international release is THE GHETTO starring Ice T and Scarface and the red hot shopping of Caribbean/South American based cooking extravaganza, SIZZLIN'. It also doesn't hurt that Mark Berry is well-versed in creative acquisitions. If you look at the past year, you can see the method that AMG has employed. The Rodman deal follows a number of others, including the live Drake concert deal, to beef up its film and music related roster, which already is impressive with AttackTrax Music Supervision (www.attacktrax.com).

The documentary, currently completing production, is culled from 122 hours of live action footage of Rodman shot just prior to his North Korea visits. It is being story edited by award winning director/editor Mark Crump at Reflecting Pool Productions in Augusta, GA. The team at Reflecting Pool has more than 40 years combined experience in broadcast television with multiple regional and national level awards for their work including AP, Georgia Association of Broadcasting and numerous Telly Awards. Crump, CEO of Reflecting Pool said, "We could not be happier to start this partnership with AMG and Shami Media Grup, a terrific group of guys who are dedicated to the growth of the film industry. This furthers our strategy of aligning with companies around the globe that share our values and our commitment to the highest quality film direction and editing services. This is a great honor we can't wait to get started!"

Assisting Crump will be Michael G Hennessy, who co-wrote the musical "Somewhere South of Freedom" an original musical depicting the personal lives of plantation slaves. Hennessey will co-write the Documentary with Crump as part of the RPP team. Long time RPP member and DP for numerous company projects, Brett Smith, will also be directly involved in the story telling process and helping to oversee the talented post production team at Reflecting Pool Productions.Rob "Kelo" Hendricks, EVP Business Affairs at AMG added "Our passionate, hands-on approach to the DENNIS RODMAN, DOING IT MY WAY documentary is the way we run our business and we are confident to deliver a world class project" he said.

All music for the documentary will come from AttackTrax, AMG's award winning online music supervision company that has worked with major film and television companies throughout the years including: MTV Films, WB, Columbia/TriStar, Disney, Global, Sony, Fox, Gold Circle and many more.

Leo Leylavergne, VP of Music Supervisor for AttackTrax says, "We are excited to be part of this thrilling documentary by creating the sonic landscape that will invigorate viewers. With the easy aid of Attack Trax's pre-licensed music, we are looking forward to selecting new cutting-edge music that will compliment Dennis' eccentricities. Jerry Astbury's FPC and Shami Media Group's, GoIndieMusic.com will also be contributors to the soundtrack.

Mark Berry and Bob Shami jointly state, "This is an exciting and significant acquisition which confirms our commitment to building a global multi-dimensional film and television business," Mark Berry said in a statement. "Rodman's media track-record, relationships and current television content with his recent and controversial North Korea visits gives DENNIS RODMAN, DOING IT MY WAY a base to expand and quickly diversify our film business with international alliances."

Toronto, Canada - In its latest aggressive pre-buy to line its slate with star-driven pictures, B-Squared Entertainment, has a month before the Toronto Film Festival, closed a deal to acquire international rights to "The Ghetto", the gritty street drama feature that stars Scarface, Ice T, Tyrin Turner and De'aundre Bonds.

It was directed by respected helmer Manzie Jones, an emmy nominated producer, whose previous directorial credits include Buried Alive and Paranoid Activity 2. The film was expected to be one of the hot titles for domestic and international distribution at the upcoming TIFF market that starts September 4th. The deal was made by B-Squared Co-CEO's Mark Berry & Frank Blenman in association with Ian Martin at Industry Level Music & Film Group. It is a commitment for a wide release inclusive of broadcast internationally.

Based on the Scarface and Manzie Jones script, three childhood friends - B, 3D, and Moose, played by Scarface, De'aundre Bonds, and Tyrin Turner respectively - grow up in the inner city of Los Angeles. B turns his ability to organize and recruit to the drug trade when the local drug dealer is shot and killed. B has all the skills needed to thrive and never one to shy away from violence, B turns his neighborhood and surrounding neighborhoods into his own personal empire.

As a grown up, B thrives, until a new player starts to muscle in. The new drug kingpin is named Victor, played by Ice T. Victor pushes his drugs into B's neighborhoods and upsets the status quo. B attempts to push Victor back out of his neighborhoods without resorting to violence, but his attempts fail. Now it's time for all-out war. As tit-for-tat violence escalates between the feuding gangs, it becomes apparent that only the man willing to abandon everything he cares about will remain standing.

Mr. Mark Berry CEO BSquared said, "Manzie and Scarface have made a bold, epic, and emotionally generous saga, once again showing a master's hand in eliciting searingly beautiful performances from the actors with whom they collaborate."

Mr. Frank Blenman, Co-CEO B Squared Entertainment states, "The Ghetto fits perfectly into B Squared's catalog of media which we are offering consumers. Working with Ice T & Scarface demonstrates our commitment to working with top tier talent and professionals. The Ghetto is just the first many exciting and captivating projects we will be delivering to the viewing audience."

"Mark Berry's story is a tremendously inspirational and technically informative chronicle which is essential reading for any aspiring engineer/producer. His ability to successfully manoever within the ever changing landscape of the music industry is an inspiration and reality check for all those that would dare brave its path. Entertaining, provocative, and cast amid a who's who of celebrity interviews from some of the worlds biggest producers, artists and collaborators, Mark S.

"It's a privilege to trust your friends with your story. Jerry and Bob I have known for many years and the timing is right." says Berry.

The book is scheduled for release Sept 1st, 2014 with technical school reviews coming June 1st.

Mark S. Berry, Music Producer: Continues To Be A Music Industry Leader

Toronto-based music producer, mixer, artist & author does it all and does it well.

Toronto, Ontario- There is a clean-cut, distinguished-looking man walking down the street. He is dressed casually in a white t-shirt, jeans and biker boots. It may be difficult to tell at his point, but he is an innovative media business leader, artist, author, producer, and a well-recognized name in the international music industry. His name is Mark S. Berry, Music Producer.

Adamant about his love of music production, Mark started his own company, The Attack Media Group (AMG) in 1998. AMG is a fully independent media company with an international mandate for signing and promoting emerging artists, publishing assets and film & DVD streaming content. Attack's music publishing division is half-owned by Cherry Lane Music in NYC with catalogues that include, (Black Eyed Peas, John Legend, Elvis Presley, John Denver, "The Passion of the Christ") and its music has been placed on several major Hollywood productions and soundtracks including "The Making of Matrix Reloaded," "Coach Carter,", "Urban Legend", "Gang Tapes" "Harvard Man" and many more along with major television programs such as "Dawson's Creek," "Roswell," "Americas Most Wanted" and multiple insertions in various MTV programming. Mark's latest venture is the interactive website, www.attacktrax.com, which allows filmmakers and music supervisors to easily source music for their projects.

Born in New England and raised in New York, Mark's music career began at the Institute of Audio Research (IAR) in New York City. Rather than opt for the typical after-school job of peddling fast food, the seventeen year-old would commute to Manhattan at night where he made records for emerging basement bands. It was good practical experience that served to round out his education. Upon graduating, the kid from Brooklyn was intrigued by the British Beat, and found employment at Sir George Martin's AIR Studios in Oxford Circus, London, England where he worked for over 2 years. Like most young music industry executives, he began by fetching coffee and emptying ashtrays. However, by diligently paying attention, Mark gleaned valuable experience production techniques that would serve him well later on.

A concentrated effort to learn about music production enabled Mark to collaborate with several renowned British rock engineers/producers, such as Chris Thomas (Elton John, The Pretenders, Pink Floyd, INXS), John Punter (Japan), Bill Price (Sex Pistols), Alan Harris (Mott The Hoople, T-Rex) and Sir George Martin (The Beatles). Under such tutelage, Mark contributed to projects that were reshaping the face of the rock industry: Roll Over Beethoven by the Electric Light Orchestra, Procol Harem's Grand Hotel, and Live - Smoke on the Water by Deep Purple and "Live and Let Die" soundtrack by Paul McCartney & Wings. Another perk was the opportunity to socialize with rock icons. While working on Carly Simon's No Secrets album, an 18 year-old Mark got to hang out with Mick Jagger, who was tracking background vocals for the world-wide smash hit "You're so Vain" and would become his very first engineering credit.

With a few hard-earned credits to his name, Mark returned to the U.S. in the mid 1970s. He freelanced for some of the top recording studios in New York ie: Record Plant, Hit Factory & Jimi Hendrix's Electric LadyLand before being offered the position of Staff Engineer and in-house A&R Producer for Vanguard Records. After Eleven years with Vanguard, he moved into the area of dance and rock remixing. Mark's edgy engineering and mixing techniques significantly contributed to the success of multi-platinum artists such as David Bowie, Duran Duran, Billy Idol, Kool & The Gang, Yes, Cameo, Toto, and Boy George. Mark was also introduced to Michael Gudinski, the president of Mushroom Records & Frontier Touring, Australia's largest independent record label

and concert promotion firm where he went on to produce several multi-platinum albums released by the label garnering 7 top 10 singles in that country alone.

In 1991, Mark relocated to Toronto. That same year, he worked with the band Glass Tiger (Don't Forget Me When I'm Gone) and produced the album Get Off for multi-platinum band Haywire. Mark also discovered alternative rock band I Mother Earth, and orchestrated the group's massive signing success with EMI through the 5-song master he created at Metalworks Studios. This success was followed by more award-winning productions for artists like Hugh Dillion (Flashpoint television program, The Headstones) and Burton Cummings (Guess Who). Finally, Pierre Paradis, the mega-Canadian rock manager, solicited Mark's services to produce Voivod. The resulting Outer Limits (MCA/Universal) album features the 17-minute opus "Jack Luminous," arguably remains one of his most compelling critically acclaimed productions.

Mark is currently attending an undergraduate program specializing in cinema studies at Innis College, University of Toronto, which will assist toward his goal of feature length film and television production. His dedication to remain one step ahead of the pack validates all of the success he has enjoyed. His first book, Risking Nothing Would be Way too Risky for Me, is due for release in the Summer of 2014. The book offers some insight about production, engineering, mixing as well as becoming an entrepreneur in this rapidly evolving world of music & media.

Pragmatic, charismatic, opinionated, and sometimes controversial, Mark Berry, Music Producer lectures internationally about his role as the Chairman of a fledgling media company. He is a requested speaker at some of the world's most distinguished & prestigious music conferences including this year's MIDEM '13 Conference in Cannes, France and Music Industry China (MIC) held in Taipei, Taiwan.

A master of today's high tech equipment with a variety of skills, Mark enjoys the reputation of a producer truly capable of taking a project from conception to completion, inclusive of distribution, promotion & marketing. AMG's focus is music distribution through its deal with Universal Music Group, the insertions of music into international feature film and television releases, as well as the development of reality based television programming which is already underway.

Interview: Mark Berry, Producer/Engineer and Founder of Attack Media Group

Justin Kantor interview with producer Mark Berry.

By Justin Kantor |

Since stepping out of high school in the early 1970s, Brooklyn native Mark Berry has made a name for himself in many styles and areas of popular music. From an auspicious start working with Carly Simon to successful stints with Stephanie Mills, Freeez, and Animotion, the ambitious engineer and mixer has obtained a working knowledge of the entertainment industry's ins and outs, which he's now applying to running his own Toronto-based firm, Attack Media Group.

When was your interest in music first sparked?

I remember riding in the car with my dad as a very young boy, asking "Why is the voice so big? How come the guitar's over here, and the drums are over there?" From a very early age, I was influenced by Motown, Gamble & Huff, Aretha, and Sam & Dave.

What were your first steps towards actually entering the music business?

I didn't want to go to Vietnam when I turned 18, so I did selective service. I decided to go to school and get a trade. I started going to Manhattan at night to the Institute of Audio Research. The classes were held at Vanguard Studios and taught by Al Grundy and Irv Diehl.

How did you make the transition from student to working engineer?

Well, you can't teach compression on a blackboard. At I.A.R. we got to participate in actual engineering projects. I also started writing down the names of recording studios from the back sleeves of my favorite records-Elton John, Pink Floyd. One of the studios was AIR in London. I got my certificate and went to London that summer.

I started hanging out at AIR-getting coffee, emptying ashtrays, and coming back everyday like it was a job. Joyce Moore, the studio manager, eventually hired me as an assistant, and for the next few months I was setting up mics and instruments and dragging equipment. I was in the thick of it.

What led to your break engineering Carly Simon's seminal No Secrets LP?

Because I was an American from Brooklyn, they put us together, and we became good buddies. Richard Perry was the producer. I engineered the guitar and percussion overdubs on "You're So Vain." Most of it was done at Trident Studios. Paul McCartney and Wings did "Live and Let Die" there, as well. I was an uncredited assistant engineer on that record.

I stayed in London for almost two years, and had the chance to work on projects by ELO, The Hollies, and Allan Clarke, as well as on joint sessions by Eric Clapton and Stevie Wonder that never came out because of contractual constraints. But I started having immigration problems, so I moved back to the States.

Tell me about your career path once you got back to the U.S.

I was freelancing, working at studios like Electric Ladyland and The Record Plant, when I was hired as an assistant at Vanguard Studios. I served as a tape librarian there for a year-making copies of folk, jazz, and classical works for licensees. Then, I started engineering for the Vanguard label, at which point I got very involved with the disco and hi-NRG scene.

What were some of the highlights of your work during that time?

I did mastering with Herbie "Pump" Powers, who introduced me to Arthur Baker at Frankford Wayne studios. We ended up working together on Afrika Bambaata's "Looking for the Perfect Beat." At Vanguard, I brought in Alisha, and handled A&R, production, engineering, and mixing. She had huge club hits with "All Night Passion" and "Baby Talk" during the mid-'80s. I also did a lot of engineering and remix work with Polydor/Mercury, including Kool & The Gang, Man Parrish, and Cameo.

What is the difference between mixing and remixing?

With a basic radio mix back then, it was a matter of taking the initial production and expanding from there. As a remixer, you're bringing a new ear on the track-percussion, overdubs. When I did 12″ remixes, I'd get all the different performances to tape and put together an arrangement with the best one.

How has the landscape of recording changed since those days?

Today, everyone has Pro Tools and uses the same vocal compressor across 20 channels to fly in the vocals, locked into SMPTE. In the '80s, you had just one left-right compressor that you could use on one thing, which you had to patch out of the machine into the console. We used to record vocals down to the studio two-tracks, mark the tape, cut it together, create loops, put the mic stand with tape all around, and push start. Then came AMS. You could match the vocals for six seconds.

Why did you decide to move to Toronto, and how did you break into the scene here?

The dance music that I was involved with in New York had peaked. I came here in 1990, and attorney Paul Schindler put me together with a management company. I started working more in the rock vein. I made a record with Kenny MacLean of Platinum Blonde. It was nominated for a Juno, and made me in-demand as a producer here. I went on to work on two platinum albums with Headstones and a live album with Burton Cummings.

Since that time, you've delved into the business side of things: founding Attack Media Group. Tell me about the company.

We do developing and marketing for new artists, as well as co-publishing deals and acquisitions. I started working some time ago with the music publishing division of Alliance/Atlantis, a billion-dollar-a-year home entertainment company. They wanted to use some of my clients' music in feature-length films and TV programs. One of our divisions is Attack Trax, We put clients' music onto our website, and music supervisors can search for songs by mood or style. Cherry Lane bought 50% of the publishing, and they handle the administrative and accounting aspects. But Attack is proactive on its own in handling the movie placement infrastucture, and getting songs out around the world. We have a deal with Universal for distribution to online music stores.

What can clients expect when they sign a publishing deal with you?

We do a 50/50 co-publishing deal, which equates to a 75/25 income split in favor of the writer or artist. When the client's catalog has generated in excess of a set amount annually, we'll also do an advance.

What are some of your current projects?

We're doing a lot of streaming deals, and also partnering with a Hong Kong-based management company to launch artists in Asia. One of the artists is Chilla, a half-Chinese, half-Indonesian pop singer whom I produced for the Shanghai Music Group.

Mark S. Berry Continues To Be A Music Industry Leader

Toronto-based Producer, Mixer, Artist & Author Does It All and Does It Well.

Toronto, Ontario - There is a clean-cut, fit, distinguished-looking man walking down the street. He is dressed casually in a t-shirt, jeans and biker boots. It may be difficult to tell at his point, but he is an innovative media business leader, artist, author, producer, and a well-recognized name in the music and media industry. His name is Mark S. Berry.

Adamant about his love of music production, Mark started his own company, The Attack Media Group (AMG) in 1998. AMG is a fully independent media company with an international mandate for signing and promoting emerging artists, publishing assets and film & DVD streaming content. Attack's music publishing division is half-owned by Cherry Lane Music in NYC with catalogues that include, (Black Eyed Peas, John Legend, Elvis Presley, John Denver, "The Passion of the Christ") and its music has been placed on several major Hollywood productions and soundtracks including "The Making of Matrix Reloaded," "Coach Carter,", "Urban Legend", "Gang Tapes" "Harvard Man" and many more along with major television programs such as "Dawson's Creek," "Roswell," "Americas Most Wanted" and multiple insertions in various MTV programming. Mark's latest venture is the interactive website, www.attacktrax.com, which allows filmmakers and music supervisors to easily source music for their projects.

Born in New England and raised in New York, Mark's music career began at the Institute of Audio Research (IAR) in New York City. Rather than opt for the typical after-school job of peddling fast food, the seventeen year-old would commute to Manhattan at night where he made records for emerging basement bands. It was good practical experience that served to round out his education. Upon graduating, the kid from Brooklyn was intrigued by the British Beat, and found employment at Sir George Martin's AIR Studios in Oxford Circus, London, England where he worked for over 2 years. Like most young music industry executives, he began by fetching coffee and emptying ashtrays. However, by diligently paying attention, Mark gleaned valuable experience production techniques that would serve him well later on.

A concentrated effort to learn about music production enabled Mark to collaborate with several renowned British rock engineers/producers, such as Chris Thomas (Elton John, The Pretenders, Pink Floyd, INXS), John Punter (Japan), Bill Price (Sex Pistols), Alan Harris (Mott The Hoople, T-Rex) and Sir George Martin (The Beatles). Under such tutelage, Mark contributed to projects that were reshaping the face of the rock industry: Roll Over Beethoven by the Electric Light Orchestra, Procol Harem's Grand Hotel, and Live - Smoke on the Water by Deep Purple and "Live and Let Die" soundtrack by Paul McCartney & Wings. Another perk was the opportunity to socialize with rock icons. While working on Carly Simon's No Secrets album, an 18 year-old Mark got to hang out with Mick Jagger, who was tracking background vocals for the world-wide smash hit "You're so Vain" and would become his very first engineering credit.

With a few hard-earned credits to his name, Mark returned to the U.S. in the mid 1970s. He freelanced for some of the top recording studios in New York ie: Record Plant, Hit Factory & Jimi Hendrix's Electric LadyLand before being offered the position of Staff Engineer and in-house A&R Producer for Vanguard Records. After Eleven years with Vanguard, he moved into the area of dance and rock remixing. Mark's edgy engineering and mixing techniques significantly contributed to the success of multi-platinum artists such as David Bowie, Duran

Duran, Billy Idol, Kool & The Gang, Yes, Cameo, Toto, and Boy George. Mark was also introduced to Michael Gudinski, the president of Mushroom Records & Frontier Touring, Australia's largest independent record label and concert promotion firm where he went on to produce several multi-platinum albums released by the label garnering 7 top 10 singles in that country alone.

In 1991, Mark relocated to Toronto. That same year, he worked with the band Glass Tiger (Don't Forget Me When I'm Gone) and produced the album Get Off for multi-platinum band Haywire. Mark also discovered alternative rock band I Mother Earth, and orchestrated the group's massive signing success with EMI through the 5-song master he created at Metalworks Studios. This success was followed by more award-winning productions for artists like Hugh Dillion (Flashpoint television program, The Headstones) and Burton Cummings (Guess Who). Finally, Pierre Paradis, the mega-Canadian rock manager, solicited Mark's services to produce Voivod. The resulting Outer Limits (MCA/Universal) album features the 17-minute opus "Jack Luminous," arguably remains one of his most compelling critically acclaimed productions.

Mark is currently attending an undergraduate program specializing in cinema studies at Innis College, University of Toronto, which will assist toward his goal of feature length film and television production. His dedication to remain one step ahead of the pack validates all of the success he has enjoyed. His first book, Risking Nothing Would be Way too Risky for Me, is due for release in the Summer of 2014. The book offers some insight about production, engineering, mixing as well as becoming an entrepreneur in this rapidly evolving world of music & media.

Pragmatic, charismatic, opinionated, and sometimes controversial, Mark Berry lectures internationally about his role as the Chairman of a fledgling media company. He is a requested speaker at some of the world's most distinguished & prestigious music conferences including this year's MIDEM '13 Conference in Cannes, France and Music Industry China (MIC) held in Taipei, Taiwan.

A master of today's high tech equipment with a variety of skills, Mark enjoys the reputation of a producer truly capable of taking a project from conception to completion, inclusive of distribution, promotion & marketing. AMG's focus is music distribution through its deal with Universal Music Group, the insertions of music into international feature film and television releases, as well as the development of reality based television programming which is already underway.
